• Hi all!

    I just updated to 3.1.1 and I know there are already some posts but there is also no real solution (I think).

    When trying to use the Flash-uploader I still get the HTTP error.

    How can I fix this problem. I already tried a lot “fixes”…

    Thanks for ideas! ??

    Hi esmi

    Thanks again but this solution doesn’t work for me at all (as mentioned above).

    I tried different OS and Browser. I deinstalled and reinstalled plugins (adobe).

    I checked the htacess…

    But still no flash upload….

    Regards
    Rangi

    @safi2266 My bad. I’m sorry ??

    I’m ussing win 7 Ultimate SP1 the latest flash player (this morning i got it from adobe.com) and the problem appears on all the browsers(FF, chrome, IE8 and 9, Safari) with both upload solution (flash and html).

    The solution @esmi mentioned didn’t work in my case, the problem still persists.

    Any ideas?
    thx

    Same issue here… I am running WP 3.2.1 on a VPS [Virtual Private Server] from AlienVPS. In this case I cannot blame my host as I setup the server myself (doh!). I have tried seemingly every “fix” out there and so far none have worked. Posting to let everyone know that I have had great luck on this site and will be posting any findings.

    I had solved thsi issue, let me remember and see if i can help

    Squishy, you look like you are trying to advertise a site rather than get help for an issue.

    Do you actually need help

    Why do people get so pissy when it comes to forum posts? Yes, I need help…wouldn’t be here otherwise.

    Sorry Squishy. I am a tech guy and a visitor to many forums, and my job role requires me to pick up on sneaky posts that advertise when others dont even realise that they are being led.

    In that case, I will actually look through my config and try to find out what I changed to get this working ( I keep record in most part for all fixes I apply to my site )

    As a test do the following. It may not solve the issue but the result will help me diagnose more

    Access your website through what ever mechanism you can. find teh .htaccess file and take a backup of it ( This is critical )

    then edit your file and replace everything with the solution 1 lines. if that dont work, try replacing all with solution 2 lines

    Regards, MICK

    Solution 1

    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteBase /

    #uploaded files
    RewriteRule ^(.*/)?files/$ index.php [L]
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !.*wp-content/plugins.*
    RewriteRule ^(.*/)?files/(.*) wp-content/blogs.php?file=$2 [L]

    # add a trailing slash to /wp-admin
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^.*/wp-admin$
    RewriteRule ^(.+)$ $1/ [R=301,L]

    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
    RewriteRule . – [L]
    RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?(wp-.*) $2 [L]
    RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?(.*.php)$ $2 [L]
    RewriteRule . index.php [L]

    <IfModule mod_security.c>
    <Files async-upload.php>
    SecFilterEngine Off
    SecFilterScanPOST Off
    </Files>
    </IfModule>

    AddHandler phpini-cgi .php .htm
    Action phpini-cgi /cgi-bin/php5-custom-ini.cgi

    Solution 2

    AddHandler phpini-cgi .php .htm
    Action phpini-cgi /cgi-bin/php5-custom-ini.cgi

    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteBase /
    RewriteRule ^index\.php$ – [L]

    # uploaded files
    RewriteRule ^files/(.+) wp-includes/ms-files.php?file=$1 [L]

    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
    RewriteRule ^ – [L]
    RewriteRule . index.php [L]

    Both solutions made my site inaccessible. Below is my .htaccess file.
    ========================================
    # BEGIN WordPress
    <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteBase /
    RewriteRule ^index\.php$ – [L]
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
    </IfModule>

    # Exclude the file upload and WP CRON scripts from authentication
    <FilesMatch “(async-upload\.php|wp-cron\.php|xmlrpc\.php)$”>
    Satisfy Any
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all
    Deny from none
    </FilesMatch>

    # END WordPress
    ========================================

    Anyone found a solution for this? I read in one of the messages above that someone using a Plesk server had no issues, but using Centos is getting the error messages.

    I’ve only just started hosting sites on a Linux server, so have had to learn the hard way about uploading a htaccess file, and changing the permissions. Could there be another step I’m missing to do with Centos or a Linux server? And that is why I’m getting the
    ERROR HTTP ERROR : IMG_0248.jpg : 500
    message?

    Thanks!

    I’m on a fresh install of 3.2.1 on a fresh hosting account and am having the same problem. I was supposed to be spending this holiday weekend editing and adding content to my site, but instead I’ve been working on this image upload issue for 3 days now. I have tried everything online in dozens of “solutions” and none of them has worked. The last thing I tried was to go into SETTINGS -> MEDIA -> Maximum embed size

    Set the “maximum embed size” to “0”

    This has allowed me to actually post some photos for the first time. The image uploads are still not fully functioning, but it has allowed me to post 2 out of the 3 photos I selected for upload (the last one didn’t seem to crunch.)

    My htaccess is currently set to:

    <IfModule*mod_security.c>
    <Files async-upload.php>
    SecFilterEngine Off
    SecFilterScanPOST Off
    </Files>
    </IfModule>
    <IfModule mod_security.c>
    <Files async-upload.php>
    SecFilterEngine Off
    SecFilterScanPOST Off
    </Files>
    </IfModule>

    If anyone can help, please chime in.

    OK I just got this working. I called my host and he stayed on the phone with me while I tried uploading some photos. He said this produced some issues w/ mod-security which he addressed as they occurred and just to call him back if I get the same error.

    lappyhappy, any idea what they did to modify the mod-security?

    I think he said he increased the upload size but I didn’t understand if that was what fixed it. He just said he looked for errors as I was trying the upload and then fixed them as they popped up.

    The problem is back, it came back the day after I posted my last message here. I gave my host access to my site and they can upload photos fine, but when I try it’s still giving me the error. Has anyone made any progress with this??
